"Massive. That's the word I would use to describe my first impression of the cooler that's the subject of this review. I've reviewed many CPU coolers in the past, and this was the first one which stood out enough for my wife to ask me while I was testing, "What is that thing?"

This 'thing' is Noctua's NH-D14 CPU cooler. And even Noctua uses the word massive to describe it for its product data sheet. Like most other Noctua coolers of the past, the NH-D14 was designed for ultimate quiet cooling performance. So I'll be testing to see if that description holds true in practice."
